Untested, but perhaps use this: remove the last eval line from the PHP file and place the remaining PHP atop the Right Column plugin using the global_start hook, and then add the following variable to the right_column template:
Code:

Again untested, but try this: remove the last eval line from the PHP file and place the remaining PHP in a plugin using the global_start hook, and then add the following variable to the template containing the right column you made:
Code:
Content visible to registered users only.
To add a plugin, go to the vB ACP -> Plugins & Products -> Add New Plugin.

This is not working for me. I'm not trying to incorperate it to another plugin, just include it on the site in my custom nav. I follow the same process to create a plugin.

I've removed the line and get the following error:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected '>' in /sitehere.com/includes/functions.php(5166) : eval()'d code on line 48

Any ideas? =\

Whatever you used for the plugin is incorrect:
Code:
Content visible to registered users only.
Look at the plugin's PHP code and try removing the > character.

This is the code i'm using. I can't find anything wrong with it.

Code:
Content visible to registered users only.
I was using the global_complete hook. Not sure if it makes a difference, but now it's under global_start. I'm not getting an error, but when I call $photoplog_thumbs_vert in a template, no images are displayed. This isnt the only plugin doing this. The 1337 thumbs hack for photoplog is doing the same thing. I install it correctly, but when I make the call, nothing is displayed. Very strange. I'm using the latest VB with patch2.

Thanks again for the help.

Remove those strange newlines from the PHP code, or do another copy-paste. You cannot have things like the following in code:
Code:
Content visible to registered users only.

I'll give that a try. For example:

$vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl']
$vbulletin['sessionurl']

Like that?

FYI: The code is directly from the link in this thread, unedited.
